New Changes for Hanime on Anime!

-

Come one, come all!  After my blunder from last week, I’ve finally made the post that you all have been waiting for (sort of)!  I hinted at it last week and the week before, but I’ve made some changes to Hanime on Anime that I think will be better for the site and more entertaining and enjoyable for readers.  So gather around children, and come see what’s different!

1.     New rating system!

So this was something that many of you might have noticed last week with my review on My Hero Academia.  Since Hanime on Anime’s beginnings, I’ve been using a “five star rating” system to rate how well an anime show or movie is.  In recent months, I’ve felt that this was an inaccurate way of doing this and that it didn’t truly reflect what I feel about a show or movie.  That’s where this change comes in.  Since using it for last week’s review, all of my reviews will be done using a “1 Through 10” system.  It’s pretty self-explanitory; I rate an anime on a scale of one through ten.  I have also considered including an icon with the official rating and a brief list review the perks and downsides of the show or movie being review-something very similar to how Gamespot reviews games and other media-, but this is still in the works.

2.     New rules!

Next on the list of changes is something that I decided to implement after a suggestion from a friend.  Finally after two long years, I am finally taking requests!  I will admit, sometimes it’s hard to figure out what to do every Sunday.  Using a request system would create a repository of ideas for shows to review, and maybe suggest a few other things (more on that later!).  However, I do have one rule: NO HENTAI, YAOI, OR YURI!!!  For those of you unfamiliar with these terms, hentai is basically anime porn, and yaoi and yuri are gay and lesbian variations of it.  Under no circumstances will I review this genre of anime, and I will not accept your request if you mention one.  On the other hand, you may suggest an ecchi, an anime that presents a lot of innuendos and fan service, sometimes bordering on hentai.

3.     NEW STUFF!

And of course, to help make Hanime on Anime more entertaining and fun, I’ve decided to do different posts besides reviews!  Don’t get me wrong, I will still be doing reviews, but I’m going to try and mix things up every month so that it won’t be just reviews.  Remember back in August of 2015  I did that reaction to that orzz.com article?   I loved doing that post and was one of my all time favorites.   In fact, this inspired a new segment called “Hanime Reacts.”  It’s just as it sounds: I react to an article or video that is anime related.  Another segment I’ve decided to add is called “My Favorites in Anime.”  Here I make a list of some of my favorite moments, characters, weapons, and everything in between in anime.  And finally, I may also do posts that discuss some news and gossip in the anime world.  Believe it or not, for this Sunday’s post, I’m going to talk about the debate that’s been going on with the live action reboot of Ghost In the Shell.  Also, some of these posts will be done as vlogs!  However, do not expect this to happen regularly as I have been busy with my graduate studies.  Free time in my schedule will be a determining factor in how many video posts I will be able to do in the near future.  And to clarify, Character of the Month will still be in the monthly line up and take place at the end of each month as usual.

So that’s all that I have and will be planning to do for Hanime on Anime.   My apologies again for this post being late!  If you have a request for an anime or topic that you want to read about on Hanime on Anime, leave a comment below!  Until then, stick around for my latest post this Sunday!

Devilman (1972) vs. Devilman Crybaby: Which Is Better?

Greetings, fabulous peoples!   Welcome to part three of my Devilman- themed Flashback February!   For this week’s post, I’m doing something that I hadn’t done in a pretty long time: a Vs. post!   As many of you may know, with these posts, I take two series, characters, and even manga series and see which one was better.   In this latest Vs. post, I’m taking the two Devilman shows I reviewed for Flashback February and seeing which one was a devil of a show.   And for those who’ve seen Crybaby , I know what you’re thinking, but keep quiet for now.   With that said, let’s duel it out with the original Devilman series and Devilman Crybaby ! First Up: Devilman (1972)   First up on the chopping block is the original 1972 series.   If you read my review on it earlier in the month, the premises of the show is pretty much a kaiju series.   The series ran from 1972 to 1973 for about forty episodes.   And I will admit, I did not watch the entire series due to time restraints,

Character of the Month of April: Shoya Ishida and Shoko Nishimiya

Well, ladies and gentlemen, I think you saw this one coming.   I’m back this beautiful Sunday with this month’s Character- or Characters of the Month!   And yeah, if you read the title, I think it’s pretty obvious who was going to take it.   Cause let’s face it The End of Evangelion’s Shinji wasn’t going to take it anytime soon, especially not after the hospital scene.   But still, all kidding aside, I think this month’s picks really are worthy of the title, not just in their actions, but what they represent.   That being said, let’s talk about this month’s Characters of the Month of April, Shoya Ishida and Shoko Nishimiya from A Silent Voice . To keep things brief and less long-winded, A Silent Voice follows Shoya Ishida and Shoko Nishimiya as the two form a close friendship with each other despite the fact that the two shared a rough past.   With Nishimiya being deaf, this made her a target for bullying by Ishida as a child.   But when his bullying goes too far and Nishimiya

Akira the Movie vs. Akira the Manga: Which is Better?

Greetings, everyone!  Welcome to Part 1 of Akira Month!  To kick this two part, all about Akira, discussion post event off, I’ll be taking the manga that inspired the groundbreaking film, and the groundbreaking film that later inspired the world and seeing which one really makes fans explode-OK, that came out a little weird.  So now, without further delay, let’s get started on my discussion post battle of Akira  the Manga versus Akira the Movie! First Up: Akira the Movie So let’s begin with the Akira that most people are familiar with, the 1988 film. In a nutshell, Akira the film is about a teenage biker gang member named Tetsuo who suddenly develops psychic powers that eventually cause him to lose his mind.  This decent into  madness also sparks a rivalry between him and his best friend Kaneda, who has unwillingly become involved with a terrorist group trying to expose a secret government organization that studies individuals with psychic abilities much similar to
